Paris opens its first nude restaurant

The forty seater will serve more than bare essentials

If you’re a naturist going to Paris, you can now enjoy a meal sans les vêtements. A new eatery called O’Naturel (well, naturally!) encourages you to get rid of your clothes and leave them in the restaurant’s wardrobes, before entering the main dining area. The view into the restaurant is blocked from the streets, ensuring complete privacy.

The diner, which marks France’s first foray into nude dining, will offer meals for around $35 (Rs2,265) According to local newspaper Le Parisien, the restaurant opened with a soiree for the Paris Naturist Association.

France is already home to nude beaches, resorts along the coastline, campsites, spas, a public pool with designated clothing-optional hours and even a nudist zone within Bois de Vincennes – the city’s largest public park. With a nude restaurant, Paris joins London that saw its first nude pop-up restaurant Bunyadi open last year, Tokyo’s The Amrita and Spain’s Innato, located on the Tenerife Island.
